I've ben away from most of ya, and I'm sorry for that. Thing's have slowed down, and I can't wait
to hear everyone's new music, to try and be an artist, a full time employee and ect....it can be
awfully frustrating. I can't wait to listen and…
Just one of those passing moods. Just finished today - august 2 2009. I resisted the temptation to try to develop it any further and just let it be what it is
the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later
Kirk, I like how you make it up, ( the last three words would be italicised if I could) What I mean is, you pull these songs out of a moment. And get to go someplace new and different. Getting to go there vicariously we ride along. Those are the moments we who play,sing write live for: when we touch into the other places. I admire how you find your self there. Does your world around you get what you do? And, thanks for your comments. And and, yeah, I realized Underneath My Skin had about 30 seconds of silence magically appended to it. My computer has had a ghost in the machine ever since the dread virus/trojan horse of February trashed its way through it. It's healed, but still has nightmares I guess. I'm pushing Steve my collaborator to get together again for some real sessions, so we can finally finish that song, and figure out what to do with the really great stuff we weren't able to get to in the RPM.
This song sounds alot like Judas Priest in the guitar style. It is also incomplete. I am a sucky guitarist when it comes to leads so this track has yet to get a lead break. Hope you like it anyway. Its about a girl who RIPS MY HEART OUT! AND…
This song is an acoustic tune with a midi drum and bass track. It is a fun song that is upbeat. I created this with Cakewalk Sonar, Guitar Rig and my left-handed Abilene.
You live long enough... you take some real hits. And the only way to get on, is, to, "Pick myself up, walk down the long long road". Lifes real easy when it's all theoretical, but it's never been lived until the theories and philosophies are trashed…
This is just the beginning on this song. We haven't put the bridge in yet, it was a jam between Steve and I (Steve played that awesome Sax track, and about three guitar parts, organ..)It was just too much fun, but still... undone.
everything on this has a light floating quality as if it's hovering just above the ground...love the sax...and your vocal builds in the best way. A Great recording!
The most challenging track to record during the RPM Challenge this year. I like how a lot of it turned out, but there were so many clashing pieces, that I was pulling my hair out trying to assemble it.
Simple little song. My view on how love really falls apart. Last verse is in my opinion an add-on. I wrote it after the rest, at the behest of someone who thought it was too "un-hopeful". It may have been a goood thing.
"Simple little song?" Simply tasty. Easy swingin' with words that sink pretty deep. Vocals. Well, I've listened to several here - it's as if David Bowie, Lou Reed, Jim Morrison and Mark Knopfler could do all this. which I guess means, they couldn't you can. You just make your songs so intimate to the heart. I'll be listening
Moody downtempo instrumental inspired by a single word randomly looked up in the dictionary. (The Dictionary Challenge on the RPM boards!) In no way related to the recent flurry of teenage vampire/werewolf flicks.
Although it doesn't have anything to do with the teen movies.. if you replaced the melody instrument with something grittier it might not be bad for soundtrack material.

Derivative- This one was not supposed to be on the album, but I changed my mind and worked on it. The reason for the intended omission was because the riff, which I have been playing with for a few months, just sounded so derivative of Dear Prudence…

this is the one from which your avatar was born...rockin' skull afire!
good song, reminiscent of Buddy Holly.
very sweet. great lyrics.
Your music has a real earthy yet urban cowboy vibe... this one has got a wicked groove...I dig.
I really like this! Very catchy, with some real cool layered sounds.
Great song...very lush and hearfelt.
unsettling and erratic...unpredictable.

Great set of offbeat sounds on this track.

I can't wait to see what happens you've "finished" it!
Cool funky groove, the little up and down sounds give it some motion
really works.. glad it didnt get lost along the way. and even if the the riff was derivative, where it headed certainly wasnt. nice one chappy
